Golf's odd couple: Tom Watson and Lil Wayne

Augusta, Ga. - Apparently, rapper Lil Wayne is a fan of 66-year-old Tom Watson and the feeling is mutual. It's not clear if they've met, but they're pals on social media.

When Watson shed tears on the 18th green in his final Masters round Friday, Lil Wayne was watching the telecast and tweeted: “Jus gave Tom Watson a standin O in my living room. Well deserved Such an honor to watch greatness … U go Tom!”

Watson responded in kind Saturday, tweeting, “Appreciate the support @LilTunechi I’ll be giving you a standing O at one of your shows soon!”

The two-time Masters champion also paid tribute on twitter to Augusta native James Brown, calling the singer “an icon and one of my favorites.”
